It's basically going to be the Super7 figure minus the obvious G.I Joe influence.

This just clicked in my brain last night. This figure is specifically based on this page from CaW:

Yeah. And that reminds me as well... this Shredder shouldn't have bare arms.

People have been seeing Worms of Madness packs around the country for a few weeks now. I haven’t seen one and got impatient. Scores just Saki for like $25 on eBay today. I’ll grab Shredder later once I have more space and can have a shelf for just the Mirage Foot clan.

If you’re lucky enough to find it at Walmart it’s only $60. I’ve been to at least 20 stores on the east coast and haven’t seen a single one.

Plenty of people are selling them on eBay for a big markup (for the set NIB). Seeing lots of FAKE fans selling just Saki for much cheaper, which is how I scored mine.

Saki is the one I really want... but I'd feel like I was missing something if I didn't get Shredder as well.

Finally saw Leatherhead on the shelves - that's a big box.

Seems like the Mirage line is slowing down around me. Local Target must have close to 30 Mirage figures peg warming.

"There are NECA TMNT figures at Targets across the US!" <===== as far as I'm concerned is remains some kind of urban myth. I've been to a few, usually right around when some of these new figures supposedly will have dropped. Never seen a proper NECA TMNT figure there of any kind.

I travel for work, so I’ve been to probably 75 Targets on the East Coast in the past year and they have at least a couple NECA figures every time here. Wealthy areas are better stocked, but you’re more likely to find the more rare stuff in rural areas.

I found 4 Worms packs at a Walmart. It's the only one in a 100 mile radius that has any. I've noticed this - any particular figure always seems to end up at just one or two Walmart locations and is never seen at any of the rest. Anyway I was on the fence about this one; feel like they've forced me to buy enough Mirage Shredder/Foot stuff already without delivering much that's actually exciting. But the appearance of scarcity + FOMO got me in the end and I picked one up.

Chote, I do want, but I missed the preorder. So I hope that one gets a wider release soonish (or, shows up at some random Walmart sometime).
